Just caught one at 7:45 AM EST! He was uncommon and was found near the entrance to Kara. I also found another on top of a tower, but he was poor quality. No sign of a rare. LOVE this little guy! Cool abilities, and looks awesome when summoned floating along near your character. :)

I was inspired by some of the stories of oozes dropping quickly, so I farmed some oozes while in Felwood. Do not recommend it - after about 2 hours, only one or two oozing bags even dropped. I stopped in Swamp of Sorrows and tried my luck there for four hours- no oozeling. Giving up for the time being :(
